Like the title says, I have a major oil leak coming from the O ring that seals the oil pump drive, or where the distributor would be, if we had one. I verified it this morning with my inspection mirror, and it is oozing up and out all around the base of the shaft.
My question is, have any of you ever replaced this O ring? Without removing either intake manifold (upper or lower)?
I can access the 15mm bolt with my socket wrench, and am able to loosen it. I believe I can do the entire job without removing anything. It is a tight space, but looks possible.
Any thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
